THE Rotary Club of Redditch shouldn't have any problems when it comes to raising a glass or two at the its President's Special Final Luncheon later this month.

For their guest speaker will be none other than renown toastmaster Reuben Lynch who will be giving Rotary members an insight into his work.

Mr Lynch is the only black Toastmaster in England and is the current president of the Toastmasters Guild.

To mark the occasion, Mr Lynch will be appearing in full regalia when Rotary Club meet at the Abbey Hotel and Golf Club in Hithergreen Lane on Monday, June 25.

Having served for 25 years in the army, Mr Lynch went onto become banqueting manager at Chesford Grange in Kenilworth before training to become a toastmaster and working at high profile venues such as The Dorchester and Park Lane hotels in addition to having connections with many members of the royal family.

The event comprises a two course lunch and costs £12 per head to attend.

Anyone interested is advised to book in advance as the event is expected to attract considerable interest.
